"Location is superb . Rooms very clean . Reception staff lady who checked us in is very good . Pillows Need to be better from feather or down as existing pillows are for 3 star hotels only . Breakfast is good but not to the NH collection level that I knew from NH Brussels . A basic cooked Ham is not to NH standard as just one selection . Location Remains the ACE"
